Was this woman under brainwashing? They'd seen the handiwork of a few of the patients like this, but, trying to touch her mind and get a feel for it, he could only feel that same sense of void.
Qui-Gon kept his hand out, but his voice as he spoke was calm, persuasive. He tried to put the weight of the Force behind his words. "We will be leaving shortly, miss, after we take these gentlemen with us. Surely a few minutes won't disrupt your cleaning..."
He still kept a wary distance. His last attempt to Force persuade here in Landels hadn't been too successful - he'd tried with an Earthian spider and it didn't seem to have more effect. Trying to touch a being like this woman who was a void in the Force was much like trying to grab air and possibly just as successful. But he had to try, before he might have to resort to violence, and give time for the two other patients to get some distance between themselves and this armed woman. Qui-Gon kept his eyes on her, gaze focused.
